API

  • MSet::get_document(): Don't cache retrieved Document objects unless they were requested with fetch(). This avoids using a lot of memory when many MSet entries are retrieved. (Fixes #604)

matcher

  • Speed up slow phrase searches by checking min weight before term positions (partly addresses #394).

xapian-compact

  • Fix multipass compaction not to damage document values, and to merge the database stats correctly. (fixes #615)

xapian-replicate

  • Fix handling of delays between replication events - the subtraction of the target time and the current time was reversed, so we wouldn't sleep when before the deadline, but would sleep after it for the amount we'd missed it by.
  • On Microsoft Windows, we no longer sleep for more than 43 years if the target time for a replication event had already passed. (Fixes #472)

PHP

  • Keep references to the PHP wrapper object when an object is set on another object. (fixes #614)

Tcl

  • Allow TCL_INC to be passed to configure. (fixes #612)

Perl

  • Fix testsuite to work with Perl 5.16. (fixes #610)

portability

  • Portability fixes for recent GCC, MSVC 2012, and Sun Studio 12 (#611).
